TEXAS 5 STRONG O-LINE CLINIC

Thanks to Stephen Goodwin, Rick LaFavers and Lamar Consolidated HS for hosting the first Texas 5 Strong Offensive Line Clinic.  Looking forward to next year.
It was a great day of offensive line clinic and some of the nuggets are listed below.

Speakers and topics included:
Tony Johnson @kickslide - Bonham HS: fundamentals of offensive line play
Nick Codutti @coachcodutti - Beaumont Westbrook HS: inside zone & pass protection
James Piker @coach_piker - Catholic of Pointe Coupee HS: O line play in the flexbone triple option
myself - year round physical preparation for the offensive lineman
Joey Jackson @runthepower - A&M Consolidated HS: OL play with RPO's
Seth Harris @coachsethharris- Friendswood HS: Blocking for traps and QB runs
Zach Bass - Pete Medlock @petemedlock - Port Neches Grove HS: power concept out of the spread


  • Set blocking goals for WR's: would include pancackes, successful cuts, run offs vs man - from Coach Jackson
  • Wide Zone concept by Coach Codutti - we are looking at installing this spring, also had RPO's off of


  • Great verse that applies to coaching from Coach Johnson:
II Timothy 4:2 "Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage - with great patience and careful instruction."

the video include information that I covered in "Preparing OL year round"
